Autumn craft

It's Easter. I get all the fish on Good Friday thing because Easter is a very big Christian holiday. But it's also Autumn and harvest time. Which is why all the bunnies and eggs and spring bonnets annoy me a bit. We live in the SOUTHERN hemisphere.

So we did some Autumn themed craft. I printed off some leaves, apples and pumpkins and the girls painted them.

We left them to dry

And then made a leaf mobile out of them.

Today I made pumpkin soup and bread. Some of the pumpkin came out of our very own garden and I made the stock from scratch. I'm spending some time reflecting on my personal harvest from the previous year-and what to let go of coming into winter.
